The Unconventional Lamp Shades Have Been Intricately Carved

These carved skulls can be bought on etsy and they function as unusual home decor objects and even lamp shades.

The artist Mikhail Bozhok uses animal skulls as the base for his creations and while the concept is somewhat ominous, the resulting effect of the carved skulls is quite delicate. The artist was inspired by the patterns and designs that can be found in "crochet textures, architecture and antique prints" and replicated his own version of those designs onto the skulls. Since each skull has been hand carved by the artist, each one is individually unique.

These intricate skulls may be somewhat eerie, but they would function as an excellent talking point for people who enjoy unusual decorations.
